Revision: June 20062007 Versa
CAUTION:

Clean dust on caliper and brake pad with a vacuum dust collector. Do not blow with compressed
air.

While removing brake pad or cylinder body, do not depress brake pedal because piston will pop
out.

It is not necessary to remove torque member mounting bolts and brake hose except for disassem-
bly or replacement of caliper assembly. In this case, hang cylinder body with a wire so that brake
hose is not under tension.

Do not damage piston boot.

If any shim is subject to serious corrosion, replace it with a new one.

Keep rotor free from brake fluid.

When replacing brake pad, replace shim with a new one.
Removal and Installation of Brake PadEFS006JP
REMOVAL
1. Remove tires from vehicle.
2. Remove sliding pin bolt (lower side).
3. Hang cylinder body with a wire, and remove pads, shims and
pad retainers from torque member.
CAUTION:
When removing pad retainer from torque member, lift pad
retainer in the direction shown by arrow, so as not to
deform it.
INSTALLATION
1. Apply AS-880N grease or equivalent to the shims. Install shims to pads.
CAUTION:
Securely install shims according to mounting direction of pads.
2. Apply M7439 grease or equivalent to pad contact surface on pad retainers. Install pad retainers and pads
to the torque member.
CAUTION:

When installing pad retainer, attach it firmly so that it is
not lifted up from torque member, as shown.
3. Install cylinder body to torque member.
NOTE:
Use a disc brake piston tool (commercial service tool) to easily press to piston in.
CAUTION:
Check the brake fluid level in the reservoir tank for fluid level because brake fluid returns to mas-
ter cylinder reservoir tank when pressing piston in.
4. Install lower sliding pin bolt (lower side), and tighten it to the specified torque. Refer to BR-24, "
Compo-
nents" .

"REMOVAL" .
2. Remove sliding pin bolts from cylinder body, and remove pads,
shims and pad retainers from torque member, if necessary.
CAUTION:
When removing pad retainer from torque member, lift the
pad retainer in the direction shown by arrow, so as not to
deform it.

9. Adjust clearance of brake shoe. Refer to PB-4, "
ADJUSTMENT" .
10. Install tires to the vehicle.
Removal and Installation of Wheel CylinderEFS006JV
REMOVAL
1. Drain brake fluid. Refer to BR-9, "Drain and Refill" .
2. Remove the rear brake shoe assembly. Refer to BR-31, "
Removal and Installation of Drum Brake Assem-
bly" .
3. Remove the brake tube from the wheel cylinder.
4. Remove bolts on the wheel cylinder, and then remove wheel cylinder from the back plate.
INSTALLATION

Installation is the reverse order of removal. Tighten bolts to the specified torque. Refer to BR-30, "Compo-
nents" .

Refill with new brake fluid and bleed air. Refer to BR-10, "Bleeding Brake System" .

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS FOR SELF-DIAGNOSTIC ITEMSPFP:00000
Wheel Sensor System EFS006LQ
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1. CONNECTOR INSPECTION
Disconnect the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) connector E33 and wheel sensor of malfunctioning
code.
Check the terminals for deformation, disconnection, looseness or damage.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Repair or replace as necessary.
2. CHECK WHEEL SENSOR OUTPUT SIGNAL
1. Connect ABS active wheel sensor tester (J-45741) to wheel sensor using appropriate adapter.
2. Turn on the ABS active wheel sensor tester power switch.
NOTE:
The green POWER indicator should illuminate. If the POWER indicator does not illuminate, replace the
battery in the ABS active wheel sensor tester before proceeding.
3. Spin the wheel of the vehicle by hand and observe the red SENSOR indicator on the ABS active wheel
sensor tester. The red SENSOR indicator should flash on and off to indicate an output signal.
NOTE:
If the red SENSOR indicator illuminates but does not flash, reverse the polarity of the tester leads and
retest.
Does the ABS active wheel sensor tester detect a signal?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Replace the wheel sensor. Refer to BRC-33, "
Removal and Installation" .
3. CHECK TIRES
Check for inflation pressure, wear and size of each tire. Refer to WT-29, "
SERVICE DATA AND SPECIFICA-
TIONS (SDS)" .
Are tire pressure and size correct and is tire wear within specifications?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Adjust tire pressure or replace tire(s).
4. CHECK WHEEL BEARINGS
Check wheel bearing axial end play. Refer to FAX-5, "
FRONT WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION" or RAX-4,
"REAR WHEEL BEARING INSPECTION" .
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 5.
NG >> Repair or replace as necessary. Refer to FAX-5, "
Removal and Installation" or RAX-4, "Removal
and Installation" .

CVT FLUID CHECK
Fluid Leakage and Fluid Level Check

Inspect for fluid leakage and check the fluid level. Refer to CVT-16, "Checking CVT Fluid" .
Fluid Condition Check
Inspect the fluid condition.
STALL TEST
Stall Test Procedure
1. Inspect the amount of engine oil. Replenish the engine oil if necessary.
2. Drive for about 10 minutes to warm up the vehicle so that the
CVT fluid temperature is 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F). Inspect the
amount of CVT fluid. Replenish if necessary.
3. Securely engage the parking brake so that the tires do not turn.
4. Install a tachometer where it can be seen by driver during test.

It is good practice to mark the point of specified engine
rpm on indicator.
5. Start engine, apply foot brake, and place selector lever in “D”
position.
